S75Injury of blood vessels at hip and thigh level

S75 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for injury of blood vessels at hip and thigh level. It belongs to block S70-S79 (injuries to the hip and thigh) and chapter 19 (injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 5 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: S75.0 (artery), S75.1 (level), S75.2 (level), S75.8 (level) and S75.9 (level).

The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of S75, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: injury of blood vessels at lower leg level (S85.-) and injury of popliteal artery (S85.0).

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
